When do we see and feel who we really are?

QuoteTravis Wengreen Leave a comment

“I have realized; it is during the times I am far outside my element that I experience myself the most. That I see and feel who I really am, the most!

I think that’s what a comet is like, you see, a comet is born in the outer realms of the universe! But it’s only when it ventures too close to our sun or to other stars that it releases the blazing “tail” behind it and shoots brazen through the heavens!

And meteors become sucked into our atmosphere before they burst like firecrackers and realize that they’re shooting stars!

That’s why I enjoy taking myself out of my own element, my own comfort zone, and hurling myself out into the unknown. Because it’s during those scary moments, those unsure steps taken, that I am able to see that I’m like a comet hitting a new atmosphere: suddenly I illuminate magnificently and fire dusts begin to fall off of me!

I discover a smile I didn’t know I had, I uncover a feeling that I didn’t know existed in me… I see myself. I’m a shooting star. A meteor shower. But I’m not going to die out. I guess I’m more like a comet then. I’m just going to keep on coming back.”  ― C. JoyBell C.

“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude to me is more important than facts…. We cannot change our past…we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10 percent what happens to me and 90 percent how I react to it. And so it is with you… we are in charge of our attitudes.”                        – Charles R. Swindoll

 

Action overcomes Fear

Isn-t-it-time-to-take-action

Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence.
Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear.
Perhaps the action you take will be successful;
perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow.
But any action is better than no action at all.
– Norman Vincent Peale

Today will never happen again. Don’t waste it!

QuoteTravis Wengreen Leave a comment

“Welcome every morning with a smile. Look on the new day as another special gift from your Creator, another golden opportunity to complete what you were unable to finish yesterday. Be a self-starter. Let your first hour set the theme of success and positive action that is certain to echo through your entire day. Today will never happen again. Don’t waste it with a false start or no start at all. You were not born to fail.” ~ Og Mandino

What happens when you squeeze an orange?

QuoteTravis Wengreen Leave a comment

“When you squeeze an orange you get orange juice because that’s what’s inside.  The very same principle is true about you.  When someone squeezes you – puts pressure on you – what comes out is what’s inside.  And if you don’t like what’s inside you can change it by changing your thoughts.” – Dr. Wayne Dyer
